Default Tapping Keg of Fat Tire

I am new to the board and to kegs....

I am hosting my son's baptism party and want to have a keg of Fat Tire. Can i tap this with just a party tapper?

Unfortunately, the party will be in the basemant of the church (no kegerator)and I am looking at a barrel of ice for the keg.

Thanks for any thoughts and input.

Yes you could, however the beer would need to be consumed that day (or the next at the latest) as the beer will deteriorate quickly once air is introduced.

Default Thanks for the help...

Seeing that I am planning on building a kegerator in the next week, I decided to buy my two keg dispensing kit from the website here. Then I also bought two beer hose with 4 inch coupler to use for the party.... I figured that I might as well get some use out of the two keg dispenser before putting it in my fridge.

Please let me know if my thinking is wrong here???

Sounds right. I take it you bought everything to serve 2 kegs with co2 in the kegerator and you are going to use the party pump for the party.
